UPDATE:

Good news everyone! Comi-con has reversed its course!!!
HELL YEAH!!

Look at what we did TOGETHER! Comic-con has quietly changed their language and will NOT allow GenAi imagery in their art show!

And this happened because you all wrote letters, and shared your concerns! Speaking up works EVERY time!

So congrats friends! We did this together!!!

San Diego Comic-Con will no longer allow AI 'art' to be displayed at their event

"Material created by AI either partially or wholly, is not allowed in the art show"

This follows backlash from artists after SDCC initially indicated AI-generated work would be permitted

50 Years before the death of Himmel.
Himmel: "They say machines in the future will be able to paint better than people, I worry about future artists..."

2000 Years after the death of Himmel.
Frieren: "Rest easy, Himmel. There's hope for artists yet <3"
